10. Fill a ask or beaker with liquid to be pumped through the system.

Place the ll tubing in the reservoir and afx using a tubing clip.

11. Software Conguration: Using the touchscreen controller,

navigate to the Conguration Screen, then select Hardware, then

select Syringe and set the volume of the syringe(s). Go back one

menu and select Valve to set the valve conguration. (Section 4.3)

For additional instructions, please refer to the sections in the

Basic Manual referenced by each step.

Note: All dual syringe pumps will be congured as a Diluter.

1. Unpack the instrument and verify you have the proper

components for your unit. (Section 2.1)

2. Select a clean, dry and level location to install the Microlab 600.

(Section 2.2)

3. Place the syringe drive unit in the desired location. Place the

controller on top of the pump and connect the pump and

controller with the Ethernet Cable.

6. Syringe Installation: Press and hold the Prime button. After

three seconds, the syringe drive will begin moving down to

allow for installation of the syringe(s). Release the Prime button

when the syringe(s) are approximately 50% from the bottom of

stroke. Install the syringe(s). (Section 2.4.2)

4. Plug the power supply (P/N 61092-01) into the back of the syringe

drive unit. Then plug the power cord into the power supply and then

into a wall outlet. The pump will automatically turn on. It will take

approximately 30 seconds for the controller to boot up completely.

5. Valve Installation: The Microlab 600 comes with the valve(s)

already installed. For a Single Syringe instrument, skip to step 6.

For a Dual Syringe instrument, the valves come with the cross

tube installed between the left and right valve. For a Diluter or

Continuous Dispenser setup, leave the cross tube in place.

For the Dual Syringe Dispenser setup, the cross tube can be

removed by detaching the valves, unscrewing the cross tube

and reinstalling the valves. (Section 2.4.1)
